The National Treasury Management Agency has sold €500m worth of 12 month Treasury Bills - as planned - at an auction today.

The Treasury Bills were sold at a yield of -0.5%.

The NTMA sold the same amount of 12-month paper in its last Treasury Bill auction in June at a yield of -0.41%.

Last week the agency raised a total of €1 billion in a dual bond auction.

It sold €550m of nine-year bonds at a yield of 0.689% and €450m of 20-year bonds at a yield of 1.648% at  auction.

The agency has now raised €10.5 billion of its €9-13 billion target through the issuance of benchmark bonds and a further €610m via its first ever inflation-linked bond.
